Dr. Barber is "Not accepting Medicare patients". That is, those who need his care the most. Thanks.

I used to go to Piedmont Endocrinology and see Dr Barber. He is an excellent doctor. I called to ask a few questions since I haven't been in there for a while. The woman (Judy) who answered my call was very rude and cut my conversation off, before I had time to finish. Judy, don't know you, but you are in the wrong profession. You just told me all I needed to know from just the first phone call. read more

I called to make an appointment after my Dr. sent in a referral. I told the receptionist the referral was for Dr. Barber. She stated that I could not make an appointment because my Dr. did not list a diagnosis. I explained that I had type 2 diabetes and that I had passing out spells. She said they do not treat type 2 diabetes. I told her the other symptoms that I was having and she refused to make me an appointment, even though my Dr. referred me. My Dr. stated she wanted me to see an Endocrinologist due to my symptoms. The person that answered the phone refused to make me an appointment. She was very RUDE. Hey, you hateful receptionist, if I had a diagnosis, I wouldn't need to see an Endocrinologist. read more

I am appalled and utterly disgusted by the deplorable treatment I received at Piedmont Endocrinology in Hickory, NC. The level of incompetence and apathy displayed by this establishment is beyond belief. From the moment I called to confirm my appointment, it became painfully clear that the staff at Piedmont Endocrinology lacks any sense of professionalism, courtesy, or basic empathy for their patients. When I called to confirm my appointment, I was already met with a hostile attitude. Shockingly, I was informed that I had supposedly canceled my appointment in September during a call that never even took place. It is a blatant fabrication on the part of Piedmont Endocrinology to cover their own mistake of reaching out to the incorrect number. Rather than acknowledging their error, they chose to shift blame and refused to take any responsibility. What followed was truly astonishing. Instead of rectifying their mistake, the staff at Piedmont Endocrinology went a step further and banned me from their office. This heinous behavior demonstrates that their priority lies in protecting their own ego rather than providing the care and service their patients deserve. It is utterly unacceptable for any medical establishment to treat patients in such a heartless manner. It is evident that Piedmont Endocrinology is a place where patients are not regarded as human beings in need of care and compassion, but rather as inconveniences to be brushed aside. Their callous treatment of patients is indicative of a deeply rooted culture of indifference and disregard for the fundamental principles of medical ethics. I strongly advise anyone seeking endocrinology services to avoid Piedmont Endocrinology in Hickory, NC at all costs. This establishment has proven, through their appalling treatment and lack of accountability, that they are unfit to provide the care and support that patients require. Choose a medical practice that values its patients, even if it means driving a little further. #PiedmontEndocrinology #medicalpractice #endocrinology #healthcare #medicalcare #patientcare #doctorsoffice #endocrinologist #hormonalhealth #healthandwellness #healthyliving #thyroidhealth #diabetesmanagement #hormonalimbalance #medicalspecialist #specializedcare #medicalfield #healthprofessionals @PiedmontEndocrinology @endocrinologist @thyroidhealth @diabetesmanagement @hormonalhealth #americanthyroidassociation medicalmalpractice #patientrights #healthcareproviderresponsibility #medicalnegligence #doctorerrors #malpracticelaw #medicalmisconduct #patientadvocacy #medicalerrors #medicallawsuit #malpracticesettlement @ISCD @endocrinesociety @aace read more

Scheduled an appointment for a family member. When we arrived my family was told they didn't have an appointment. The check in lady was rude & argumentative, but finally admitted she had not put the appointment in the computer. Her fault, not ours. She told us to come back 2 hours later. read more

Well, I am always honest in my reviews. Unfortunately, I have to admit I am not a big fan of the…read morepractice as a whole. Most of the front desk people are rude and act like patients are an interruption of their work rather than the reason for it. Some other staff aren't much better. Most of the time at other offices/practices (such as specialists) I, as a patient, I feel like a number when there rather than a person... a person who really matters to the doctor; perhaps better said, I feel like my overall health and my healthcare concerns really matter to Dr. Hamilton-Brandon. Dr. Hamilton-Brandon is compassionate, caring, kind, and very smart with treatment(s) and her practice of medicine is the best healthcare I have ever had. Unfortunately, I can't say much positive about the practice as a whole, but I certainly do think the best assets are the physicians, and for me, Dr. Hamilton-Brandon is at the top of that list. I have also seen another physician a few times at Northeast when my physician has been out of town. I also was provided excellent care and treatment. Sometimes it's the little things that make the a difference. When I saw the other provider while Dr. Hamilton-Brandon was away, She found time to call and check on me to see how my injury was since she wasn't there when I needed treatment. Forrest Gump said "life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get." Unfortunately the same can be said for the medical office assistants/nurses and other non-provider staff there...I call it "nursing roulette." Lately, I never know who is going to call me back and take me to the examination room, but I know the care from my provider will always be excellent. Some people complain about wait times at a doctor's offices; however, these are some of the same people who will demand to be seen [worked in] on a day when they are sick! I wonder how a doctor could be running behind schedule. I am amazed that people willingly and without complaint stand in line for hours to get the latest iPhone, iPad, or other similar gadgets. People will stand in line for a new movie on the night it premieres, or to get a great seat at a concert. In my opinion, good quality healthcare from a caring, compassionate provider is worth the wait. To be honest, it's sad to say, but there are very few doctors like Dr. Hamilton-Brandon left. My insurance company sometimes seems to have more power than my physician. I have read articles that report hospital employed physicians seem to be under seemingly impossible goals (aka: quotas) to get patients in and out the door spending a disproportionate amount of time on minutia which saddens me. I read an article a while back that discussed many hospital-employed physicians have or very little (if any) input to who is on their team. A physicians input should be a deciding factor when choosing a "right hand" person such as a nurse or medical office assistant. I couldn't imagine having my assistant or secretary chosen for me. [Disclaimer: I am not aware if this is the case with Catawba Valley Medical Center]. To summarize, If you have a physician like Dr. Hamilton-Brandon I would encourage you at some point in your next visit to let him/her know just how much you appreciate them. If you don't have a provider like mine, get an appointment with her or find a primary care physician like her (which, in my opinion, will require a great deal of prayer or a great deal of luck, likely both) before it's too late. I Patient-centered focused care and bedside manner is quickly being devoured by the incestuous beasts of insurance companies share prices and hospital's bottom line. This is making the new face healthcare "profit-centered" rather than "patient-centered".
